2.2. DESCRIPTION
ADA-14010 Wireless Serial Server transmits data between devices equipped with the RS485/RS422 interface via the wireless network
WLAN. Functioning in Wi-Fi network can be in the virtual serial port, serial bridge TCP, serial bridge UDP, TCP sockets, UDP sockets,
MODBUS Data Gateway.
The MODBUS Data Gateway converts MODBUS-RTU master/slave protocol and MODBUS-ASCII master/slave to MODBUS-TCP
protocol and inversely. This allows to integrate the MODBUS-RTU/ASCII devices with MODBUS-TCP devices in a single network.
ADA-14040 supports protocols such as TCP, UDP, DHCP, SNMP, SSL/TLS, Telnet, Rlogin, LPD, HTTP/HTTPS, SMTP, ICMP, IGMP,
ARP. The Server has implemented WWW server for remote configuration and management via internet browser. The baud rate is up
to 230,4kbps via the RS485/422 interface without the interference into the format of transmitted data. For operating ADA-14040 uses
signals such as RX+, RX-, TX+/A, TX-/B.
Can be connected 32 devices to RS485 Bus created on the base ADA-14040, operate in half duplex or full duplex mode on 4-wire
RS485 Bus.
It is adapted to supply an external voltage source in scope from 10V= to 30V= and 4W power. Converter has protection against power
supply reverse connection and short-circuit protection and surge on RS485/422 Bus. ADA-14040 has also galvanic separation
between power supply and Wi-Fi interfaces and RS485/RS422 interfaces and additionally optoisolation between RS485/422 and WiFi.
The range of transmission in the wireless network Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11b):
- in buildings from 30m to 150m,
- in open area to 300m,
The transmission range can be increased after the application of additional directional antennas.
Together with the ADA-14040 we provide the drivers, which after installation, create in operating system additional COM port on the
next free number e.g. COM3. It can be use as standard COM port but it isn't hardware port but virtual, create in Windows system. This
is the reason why some applications running in DOS and use this port, can operate improperly.

To reduce disturbance from environment, it is recommended to:
– use shielded twisted multipair type cables, which shield should be connected to the grounding on one end of the cable,
– lay signal cables at a distance not less than 25 cm from power cables,
– use suitable diameter cable for power supply on account of voltage drop,
– use the interference eliminators for powering the converters installed in the range of some building,
– not powering the converters form power-circuit of devices generate large impulse disturbance like contactors, relays,
inverters.
